Trouble at Loading the game

[Yves221197]

is anyone experiencing crashing while loading? like everytime i attempt to start my game, my game freezes at 5% then skips to 30% then...boom it crashes, i'm really upset with the whole situation or it has to do with with PC Performance?

did you look for damaged files with steam?

There are several things you can try to fix this issue, try each of these steps in order, and attempt to load the game after each one:
1. Disable all mods
2. Verify Local Files (Steam) - Right Click Stellaris, Right Click Properties, Go to Local Files and click "Verify Integrity of Game Files"
3. In the launcher, go to Settings, and change your Video Settings to Borderless Fullscreen or Windowed mode
4. (In Windows) Go to Settings, Add/Remove Programs, and Uninstall Paradox Launcher v2.

After relaunching the game, let the launcher download updates, and restart the game again.
If none of these things work, go to support.paradoxplaza.com and open a ticket. Customer Support will be able to help you troubleshoot this issue!
